The competition is the first part of our “Kitchen Nightmares” campaign that will be running throughout the autumn. Children aged between 6-12 are invited to take part.

Our advice to help you avoid a kitchen nightmare is:

  • Keep electrical leads, cardboard and fabrics well away from the hob and keep ovens, hobs and grills clean from grease and crumbs
  • Keep an eye on cooking at all times and never leave it unattended
  • Switch off cooking appliances when you’ve finished cooking and gone to bed

Crew Knowles: Kindness Week

Crew Knowles are enjoying kindness week this week and are always on the look out for kind things to do! Today we looked at our AR data as part of academic crew and then created some beautiful ‘Be Kind’ bookmarks for ourselves.

Crew Knowles: Black History Month

6th October 2023Rebecca Knowles

This morning in crew, we looked at the story ‘Coming to England’ as we are learning more about The Windrush Generation. Coming to England is a true story of a person called Floella Benjamin. The children were really engaged in thinking about how people might have felt, and what they might be thinking as they came to England for the first time on the Empire Windrush.

Why not listen to the story for yourself here?
